Taking into consideration the dangerous mutated wildlife, humanity has no choice but to flee into the metros, building communities underground that keep mankind's culture alive as the world dies. Two decades after nuclear war devastated the face of the planet, Earth is crawling with the mysterious 'Dark Ones ' demonic beings that violently rip apart everything in sight. It may not have the same quality of life fixtures as its sequel, but Metro opens with a truly unforgettable first instalment. While Last Light is a great FPS, 2033 is far more unique. Metro 2033 is the first half of the compilation, and arguably the real main draw of the two titles. A stranger comes to town, which in turn compels a man to go on a journey.
In the case of Metro Redux, the story actually abides by both of Gardner's structural principles.
